Transform POSCAR¶
Let’s create some dummy POSCAR.
[2]:
poscar = ipv.POSCAR.new(
[[0.5, 0.5, 0.0], [0.0, 0.5, 0.5], [0.5, 0.0, 0.5]],
{"Ga": [[0.0, 0.0, 0.0]],"As": [[0.25, 0.25, 0.25]]},
scale = 5
)
poscar.write("POSCAR") # need it later
site_kws = dict(alpha=1)
ax1, ax2, ax3 = ipv.get_axes((8,3),ncols=3, axes_3d=[0,1,2])
poscar.splot_lattice( ax = ax1, fill = False,label='original',
site_kws=site_kws)
_ = poscar.transform(lambda a,b,c: (b+c-a, a+c-b, a+b-c)).transpose([1,2,0]) # bring a1 to x
print(poscar.last.data.metadata.TM)
poscar.last.splot_lattice( # .last points to last created POSCAR in transform
ax=ax2, fill = False, color='red', label='transformed',
site_kws=site_kws
)
poscar.last.splot_plane([1,1,0],1/2,ax=ax2)
poscar.transform(lambda a,b,c: (a-c,b-c,a+b+c)
).set_zdir([0,0,1]).splot_lattice(ax=ax3,color='red')
print(poscar.last.data.metadata.TM)
ax1.view_init(azim=-25, elev=15)
ax2.view_init(azim=-35, elev=15)

K-Path¶
We can interplate kpath based on current POSCAR, it gives correct distance between points.

poscar.get_kpath([
(0,0,0,'Γ'),
(1/4,1/2,-1/4,'K'),
(0.5,0.5,0,'X'),
(0,0,0,'Γ'),
(0,0.5,0,'L')
], n=8)
